Documentary: Bible Quiz

Via the Beeb, a story of the Bible Quiz culture–the director, raised Christian, left the faith in college. The documentary is her attempt at understanding the culture she left behind, and at sharing that understanding with her new, secular culture.

Comments

I reckon the champion life-waster was the Hare Krishna who worked on a farm owned by his religion in New South Wales during the 1980s. He was a tractor driver and managed to run through the Hare Krishna, Rama Rama chant thousands of times per day. He never said anything else. He never thought anything else. He spent his whole day mindlessly repeating his idiot chant.

These Christians are behaving just as mindlessly.

Even worse: when they are no longer on the circuit they will try to relive past glories by recruiting other Christian children and encouraging them perform similar feats. A whole new generation of idiot believers who know the book of Ephesians off by heart (and think that prayer can heal cancer).
